Time--2017 A to Z Theme

My theme for the 2017 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge was "Time". The posts are of a more philosophical, contemplative, and even autobiographical bent. No time management tips in this theme, but stuff intended to make you think.

Always a work in progress--welcome to my blog...

And We're Off and Running...

Or to be more precise, we're off and driving. As this blog post goes up on site we'll be heading north toward Seattle and then in the days to come we'll arc across Canada as we wend our way to New Jersey. We have a long route mapped out ahead of us, but within ten days we'll be enjoying a visit with our daughters and their families and especially our grandchildren.

What this means as far as blogging goes is that I might be a bit more scarce at times. I still plan to post my Battle of the Bands posts on the 1st and 15th of the months as well as hopefully timely BOTB results posts. And I hope to have a few other scattered posts for #IWSG, Flashback Friday, and Question of the Month--those might be integrated into other posts if necessary.

I'll still be trying to visit blogs as much as I can, but if you don't see me then you know what's up. Things should be back to normal schedule after August 15th.

Something of interest that caught my attention and might be of interest to some of you over age 50 is the announcement of Karen Walker's anthology on aging. She wrote about it here if you'd like to submit something for consideration. Sounds like a project that I might participate in if I can find the opportunity timewise after my trip. Check it out to see if it might be of interest to you as well.

Hope you are all having a safe and happy summer. See you around!

Oh, and if you missed my previous Battle of the Bands results you can find those here.

Heading over to the Jersey shore again and following an entirely different route? I wish you a safe trip and hope you make lots of happy memories on your journey. In 1963 I lost my Ace comb at the Cape May ferry landing. If you happen to find it please mail it back to me.

Lee, sounds like y'all have quite the trip mapped out. Have a good time and don't worry about things in Blogosphere its not going anywhere and your friends will be waiting for your return. I'll check out the writing project. Thanks for sharing!

How exciting that your wife will see Canada! Wishing you both a memorable journey, filled with joy and pleasant surprises. You did pack your cameras, right? Thanks for sharing Karen's blog - I love the idea!

Go ahead and say something. Don't be afraid to speak your mind.I normally try to respond to all comments in the comment section so please remember to check the "Email follow-up comments" box if you want to participate in the comment conversation.

For Battle of the Bands voting the "Anonymous" commenting option has been made available though this version is the least preferred. If voting using "anonymous" please include in your comment your name (first only is okay) and city you are voting from and the reason you chose the artist you did.

If you know me and want to comment but don't want to do it here, then you can send me an email @ jacksonlee51 at aol dot com.
